They've destroyed every hospital, but, incredibly, there are people not coming to rallies because they're worried about hurting someone's feelings. I have to ask, what are you doing with your lives? Is there a point to you? Sort yourself out.

I just learned some detail of the Wounded Knee Massacre.
I kind of wish I didn’t.
Australia has its own massacres.
Indigenous people in both nations, I don’t know how they reconcile having to live among the people who colonised their lives.

NOPE, I don't think people should worship a dead guy, but the message is clear: Bibles aren't books, they're libraries of 66 books. Does every common reader come to the conclusion there's more than a few things more horrific in the Old Testament than the New Testament? This preacher thinks so! 👇

❇️ We hate Trump.
❇️ He ran casinos to bankrupt the needy then shilled his way to the top.
🆘 BUT let's stop pretending Biden didn't just green-light the bombing of 50,000+ civilians, squandered our resources, and displaced millions.
